The new video for Lil Yachty's "Oprah Bank Account" ft Drake and DaBaby arrived this week but not everyone has been feeling the visuals. As the lighthearted video was meant to poke fun at The Oprah Winfrey show, a few people have called Yachty out for dressing up in a wig and dress as he took on the role of an Oprah-like talk show host.
Yachty isn't sweating it, though. Taking to Twitter, the rapper responded to the criticism by blasting the levels of toxic masculinity in his mentions. "in my opinión you don’t need to wear no dresses or wings to sell ...you created a lane ... how I’m suppose to take this," a fan said on Twitter. Yachty clearly didn't care for this person's take on his latest video, replying, "Bitch it’s just supposed to be entertaining... it ain’t even that deep, y’all Nigga’s so in denial with y’all masculinity shit like this bother y’all.. relax."
Another supposed fan criticized Yachty's sexuality and his position as a prominent black figure. "You're bi. Dressed up as a damn woman you done let the black community down," the IG user wrote. Yachty's response was less verbal this time around. Revealing that the individual was Caucasian, Yachty responded to the comment on Twitter with a meme of Russell Westbrook.

Maryland Man Arrested For Stabbing Woman With Semen-Filled Syringe
A man in Maryland has been arrested for allegedly stabbing at least one woman in the butt with a semen-filled syringe.
Police in Maryland arrested Thomas Stemen, this week, for allegedly stabbing a woman in the butt with a syringe containing his semen.
According to the NY Daily News, Stemen was caught on a security camera stabbing the woman in the cart area of a Churchton grocery store. Video shows both patrons enter the store, with Stemen closely behind the woman. He then bumps her and she reacts in pain and walks back out of the store. Stemen follows her.
“He turned to me and said, ‘I know, it feels like a bee sting, doesn’t it?’” the woman recalled to a local CBS news station. Officials have yet to confirm if Stemen is carrying any diseases, but the woman says she is taking preventative medications as a precaution. She went on to compare the pain to a cigarette burn.
On Tuesday, Stemen was arrested with two syringes, which were later confirmed to be filled with semen, on his person.
Stemen has been charged with first-degree assault, second-degree assault, and reckless endangerment.
The Anne Aroundel County Police Department is waiting for additional victims of Stemen to come forward. He could be hit with more charges as the police department says the case is “extremely active."
Woman Who Accused Donald Trump Of Rape Is Now Seeking His DNA: Report
Donald Trump's rape accuser has a dress with DNA on it that they believe is Trump's.
According to reports, a woman who said President Trump once raped her more than 20 years ago is seeking a DNA sample to back up her allegations.
On Thursday, lawyers for columnist E. Jean Carroll served Donald Trump’s attorney with a notice for the president to submit a sample on March 2 in Washington for “analysis and comparison against unidentified male DNA present on the dress.”
Carroll filed a defamation suit against Trump in November after Trump denied her rape allegation. Her lawyer then had the dress, a black wool, coat-style garment, tested for evidence, which showed DNA being found on the sleeve of at least four people, one of which is a male. Several other people have been tested and eliminated as possible contributors to the mix, so Donald could very well be the culprit.
Back in June, Trump said that Carroll was “totally lying” and he had “never met this person in my life.” While a 1987 photo shows them and their then-spouses at a social event, Trump dismissed it as a moment when he was “standing with my coat on in a line.”
While the notice is technically a demand, it’s likely that a judge will need to weigh in on whether or not Trump needs to oblige the demand because its very unlikely he’ll willingly give over his DNA without a fight.
Serial Parking Lot Pooper Arrested In Massachusetts
A sporting goods store owner was repeatedly finding surprises.
We all have our little quirks - one woman in Massachusetts' is that she poops in parking lots. But not just any parking lot is suitable for this practice. Andrea Grocer prefers to unload in a particular lot outside of a sporting goods store in Natick.
At around 7 AM on Wednesday morning (Jan. 22), the 51-year-old woman was caught by police as she was preparing to do her business. According to TMZ, Grocer made a habit of defecating in this location and got away with it for some time. The sporting good store's owner repeatedly found feces in the lot and enlisted police to start investigating the bizarre pattern in December. They initially suspected that an animal was responsible for the droppings, but the discovery of toilet paper and wipes in the area later ruled out that possibility. This was a planned operation.
Grocer was spotted doing her dirty act on security cameras, but cops struggled to read her license plate in the footage so, at first, she managed to slide by unidentified. The cops only succeeded in catching her once they started surveilling the area more diligently. After finally catching the public pooper, she was charged with 8 counts of wanton destruction of property.
Autopsy Reveals Baby Died From Meth-Laced Breastmilk: Mother Arrested
One’s woman addiction caused her to lose her newborn child & freedom.
After waking up, 36-year-old, Ashlee Rans, reached out to emergency services when she noticed that her two-month-old daughter, Neveah, was cold to the touch and bleeding from the nose. Rans told the Marshall County, Indiana local authorities that her daughter’s death might be a result of her rolling over onto the infant while the two were sleeping.

An autopsy was performed the following day after Neveah was pronounced dead but evidence of airflow blockage or physically damaged organs was not found. A much more damning and tragic conclusion was discovered when the coroner report revealed that the child had lethal amounts of amphetamine and methamphetamine in her system, according to reports obtained by WNDU.
On Jan. 14, Rans was arrested on two counts of neglect of a dependent resulting in death. Marshall County Chief Deputy Prosecutor, Tami Napier said in a statement regarding the tragedy:
“The cause and manner of death were determined by the forensic pathologist, and he determined the infant died of acute methamphetamine intoxication, and the manner of death was a homicide.”
According to the affidavit the mother, Ashlee Rans signed, she admitted to smoking marijuana and knowing that there was a possibility of transferring the drug to her child through breastfeeding. It wasn’t until the autopsy revealed the child’s overdose that Rans confessed to using meth at a gas station two days prior to Neveah’s death.
Ashlee Rans’ initial trial date has yet to be revealed but the former-mother is currently in custody at the Marshall County Jail in Indiana facing between 20 and 40 years in prison if convicted on the charges of neglect resulting in death.
While some mothers are willing to do anything for their children, some are arguably less deserving of the miracles they bring into the world. Prayers and condolences to all of those affected by Neveah’s early departure.
James Bond Producer Explains Why 007 Has To Be Male
We won’t be seeing a Jane Bond any time soon.
With Daniel Craig stepping down from his role as James Bond, producers are searching for someone to take his place. While no one has been chosen, producer Barbara Broccoli says the role will definitely be given to a man.

“He can be of any color, but he is male,” Broccoli said, according to IndieWire. “I believe we should be creating new characters for women—strong female characters. I’m not particularly interested in taking a male character and having a woman play it. I think women are far more interesting than that.”
Eva Green, who played Vesper Lynd in Casino Royale, has expressed similar sentiments in the past: “I’m for women, but I really think James Bond should remain a man. It doesn’t make sense for him to be a woman. Women can play different types of characters, be in action movies and be superheroes, but James Bond should always be a man and not be Jane Bond. There is history with the character that should continue. He should be played by a man.”
Rachel Weisz, who is married to Craig, has also agreed: “Why not create your own story rather than jumping on to the shoulders and being compared to all those other male predecessors? Women are really fascinating and interesting and should get their own stories.”
The newest Bond film, No Time to Die, is set to release on April 10, 2020.
